Waning Moon and Reflection:
The Virgo Full Moon has waned into Libra, inviting us to release, reflect, and review. This period is a time to let go of negativity, learn from experiences, and express gratitude. It will move through several signs until it darkens in Pisces around March 9th.
Libra's Influence:
Libra, an air sign known for balance and comparison, encourages us to examine how we compare ourselves and the feelings associated with it. Explore the thoughts connected to your feelings of gratitude. What do you freely express, and what do you unconsciously suppress? Is there anything to release or adjust?
Planetary Activity:
While the previous report mentioned the positive influence of Venus Square Jupiter, a new aspect emerges: Mars Square Jupiter. This can bring unexpected growth and expansion, peaking on Tuesday and subsiding throughout the week.
Communication and Structure: 2/25-3/3
Next, a cluster of Sun, Mercury, and Saturn brings focus to communication and structure. Mercury's cazimi with the Sun highlights the power of clear communication, though Saturn's influence suggests a serious or "heavy" tone. This period might involve announcements, rule discussions, or setting limitations.
Integration and Completion:
After this intense activity, the skies clear, allowing for reflective integration and completion. This leads us to the waning crescent moon, signifying the last sliver of light before the new cycle begins. It whispers the promise of new intentions and opportunities to come.
Pisces Dark Moon and Beyond:
By March 9th, the moon darkens in Pisces, a sign of transformation, intuition, and emotional depth. This period invites us to surrender, connect, and be receptive. Expect heightened creativity, compassion, and a desire for connection or escapism. The Moon sextile Jupiter on the 9th offers a gentle, supportive influence.
Remember:
This is just a glimpse into the astrological landscape. Your personal experience will be unique and influenced by your individual birth chart.
